Story in the Island

One day there lived a family on a beautiful island with lots of other islanders that nearly look the same and every one was brown and tan. Their lived a family called Mele the mum, Sione the dad, Letisia the older sister, Angel the younger sister and Lisitoni was the younger brother. This family lived at this beautiful island for 6 years. The king of the island didn’t want any other culture to come into their island.

One day the children were playing Tolopato in their back yard. They noticed a family moving in next door. The people of the island were scared and afraid because they have never seen white people. They told every one to not go near the white family. When the white family was unpacking, Angel came outside and played and accidentally kicked the ball next door. Angel was crying because her ball was over the fence so she ran up stairs and called out “Letisia” “Letisia” Letisia”. Letisia replied “WHAT”. Angel cried and said “my ball is over the fence can you please go and get it because I’m “scared”. Letisia said “I’m not scared of them I’ll go and get your ball”. So she went and knocked on the door and asked if she could get the ball from their back yard. While she was waiting for someone to open the door she was thinking why are white people are staying in a brown persons land. Sarah opened the door and said “hi can I help you”? Letisia said “yes can I please get my ball from the back yard”?

So Sarah went and got the ball and said “maybe we can hang out sometime yeah”? Letisia said yeah sure. Then she came home and told her mum, “I have never seen any one that white”. Mum replied “don’t you go near them”. Letisia said “their daughter is nice”.

The next morning Letisia was walking to school and she heard someone calling her. She turned around It was Sarah calling and running up the hill. Letisia said under her breath “oh no”! Sarah catches up and said “I’m going to the same school as you to Eua high school. When Sarah was walking she was scared that her friends might hate her for hanging out with a white girl.

When they got to school her friends were running to her then they saw a white girl with her that had blond hair and really skinny. The were all talking and Letisia‘s friends asked “who‘s your friend here”? “Letisia said” “this is my next door neighbour Sarah”. While they were talking the bell rang they all said bye and ran to class.

When the bell rang for home time she ran out and looked for Letisia.
When she saw her she ran because the boys were bullying her and teasing her about her white skin. She was in tears and When Letisia saw her running and crying she kind of got upset because it felt like they have been friends for ages. She asked “what’s wrong”? She said “I want to go home you want to come”? Letisia said “yeah let’s go”.

While they were walking she asked “are you a fan of Justin Bieber”? Letisia started to scream “hell yeah I love him”. Sarah said “me too and I have his CD so I can give you one because I have 3 of them”. Come around after you eat get and changed. Letisia went and told her mum the whole story. So the mum said you can go next door then but take this plate of food and give to her mum and tell her I said hello. So mum went and told the king the whole story to the king and told the king that they are not enemies. King came and welcomed their family to their island. So they all lived happily ever after.
